Size Guide

Content of This Paragraph

Firstly, all sizes of charts are listed in centimetres. We are an Asian-based boutique so all ready-to-wear's reset sizes are CHINESE sizes.

All dresses are not in a standard size though they are from different indie brands who have different size ranges for the same Letter Size from each other. So all tops, shoes and other kinds of stuff are in the same situation.

Garment Size Chart VS Body Size Chart

You may notice that size charts for clothes may be titled with TWO different names in our store-GARMENT SIZE and BODY SIZE.

GARMENT SIZE CHART lists data thatmeasured from the garment. Normally, there is a 1-2 centimetres manual error in measurements. Deduct 3 centimetres from the Bust and Waist measurements of the charts for leaving the space of movement; deduct 5 centimetres or more especially for heavy winter apparel or when under wearing will be added.

If a person is in bust 84 cm and waist 70 cm, size M will be fit. Size S will be tight on the waist. M size will be more suitable.

When Garment Size Charts list measurements in different ranges(usually in Bust and Waist girth), it always means that the stuff features elasticity on its bust and waist parts. Choose the size according to the upper limits and use the same way above to find fit clothes.
